That’s what you call bad timing. These birds were found frozen in the ice while they were hunting. That’s why they have this shape in their block of ice. When they plunged into the water, they were instantly frozen.
These kingfishers found in Weisendorf in northern Bavaria, Germany, are a testament to the bitter cold that winter can bring. These birds clearly hadn’t tasted the water before plunging in, and it proved fatal.
